Andrew Lloyd Webber and AR Rahman collaborated on Bombay Dreams (2002), a musical produced by Webber with music composed by Rahman. Blending Bollywood with Western musical theater, the show premiered in the West End before making its way to Broadway in 2004.
AR Rahman is an internationally acclaimed Academy Award-winning composer, producer, and musician renowned for his innovative approach to music across films, theatre, and global collaborations.
Athough ALW couldn't attend the premiere, he was graciously represented by Lady Madeleine Webber.
📍NMACC, Mumbai
During tonight's premiere, Mrs Madeleine Webber said Andrew Lloyd Webber had been longing to bring his work to India for 2 decades!
And it was made possible by Mrs Nita Ambani! (she's the lady in the brown saree)
At the red carpet for the opening night of 'The Phantom of the Opera', Nita Ambani said, "Welcome to Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre. We have completed two incredible years here. I had made a promise when we inaugurated NMACC that we would get the best of India to the world and the best of the World to India."
